    /// ### What it does
    /// Checks for constants and statics with an explicit `'static` lifetime.
    ///
    /// ### Why is this bad?
    /// Adding `'static` to every reference can create very
    /// complicated types.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    /// ```ignore
    /// const FOO: &'static [(&'static str, &'static str, fn(&Bar) -> bool)] =
    /// &[...]
    /// static FOO: &'static [(&'static str, &'static str, fn(&Bar) -> bool)] =
    /// &[...]
    /// ```
    /// This code can be rewritten as
    /// ```ignore
    ///  const FOO: &[(&str, &str, fn(&Bar) -> bool)] = &[...]
    ///  static FOO: &[(&str, &str, fn(&Bar) -> bool)] = &[...]
    /// ```
